Lol @ #8. Mion did say before at the Baitoru live event that she wanted to work at a yakiniku restaurant ever since she was a kid because she really loves grilled meat and thought the waitresses were cute.
Komi posted some Instagram stories with Mion if the video does not show watch the video here Here is Mion's 19th birthday t-shirt. The second checkbox says "Support Mion forever?"
Our future ace ^_^ I'm seriously power voting Mion in this years sousenkyo. I'd love to see that Sakura-Mion rivalry become a reality
Mion ranked in at 22nd with 4336 votes for NHK Kouhaku. I wanted her to at least rank within the top 20 but except for the top ranks, the votes were pretty close so I'm okay with her placing 22nd. On the bright side, Mion is the highest ranking AKB next gen member (not including kennin of course).
Happy New Years~ Congrats Mion for ranking 22nd~ Here's more translations from uelectrifymylife. Flash SP Interview (October 2016) --- This was your first time shooting by the sea, how was it? Since I’m from an inland prefecture, there isn’t an ocean edge, and I’ve never been to it on a trip. So this was the first time I could experience a sea house, it was a lot of fun. I also want to have a photoshoot in the ocean, but I actually can’t swim (lol). --- This time, we’re shooting a gravure commemorating the sousenkyo senbatsu. In the sousenkyo, you impressively ranked 13th. It was the third time I participated in the sousenkyo but it was the first time I cried. I ranked 29th during the preliminary results. At handshake meetings, my fans encouraged me by telling me, “It’s absolutely okay.” I thought I probably had a 10% chance to enter senbatsu; there was hope within my heart that I could at least enter undergirls. That’s why I was really happy when my name was called. --- Your speech was also well received. Really? I was so nervous. Since my goal was senbatsu, I prepared a bit by thinking about my speech, but when the event started, everything left my head. By the time it was the senbatsu announcement, I was happy, but the other side of me was extremely worried about what I should say during my speech. --- You’re put in a leading position in AKB48 more and more. Has anything changed? Although I’ve been chosen for the senbatsu numerous times now, I was concerned if it was really okay for me to continue being chosen. But I’ve grown to feel confident in my position. At the same time, there’s a sense of urgency to become a person who can contribute to AKB48 earnestly. Even at concerts, I began thinking about how can we make it exciting. I think it’s no good if I only follow my seniors. --- Do you have any goals for the future? First of all, I want to have an active role in the group that is worthy of 13th place. I was extremely pleased when I entered senbatsu together with (Okada) Nana-san and (Takahashi) Juri-san who are the same age as me. But as a group, I want to work with members from the same era and have activities that can gain hako oshis. I also hope AKB48 is able to continue on as the number one group. By the way, when Shimada Shuhei-san read my palm at the beginning of the year on AKBINGO, I was ranked the 3rd luckiest in the entire group. So in the future, I’d like to do my best so that I don’t lose this momentum.

More translations by uelectrifymylife~ Manga Action Interview (November 2016) --- In the show “Kyabasuka Gakuen”, you changed roles from a yankee in “Majisuka Gakuen” into a hostess. That’s right. I’ve certainly seen plenty of hostess clubs in dramas, but of course, it’s a completely unknown world to me. Just doing the gestures one by one is difficult. Up until now, I’ve mostly only acted with my members, so it’s fresh to have different male actors playing the role of customers each episode. Acting as a yankee and hostess are both unexpected roles for an idol; it’s tough, but it’s fun. I hope those who are watching enjoy the gap [between idol and hostess]. --- The latest single “High Tension” was released on November 16th, the center Paruru-san (Shimazaki Haruka) will graduate this year, do you have any memories with Paruru-san? During “Kuchibiru ni Be My Baby”, Paruru-san took a break due to her poor physical condition. I was able to appear as her under (substitute) throughout the promotions at the time. After that, I met Paruru-san for the first time in a while and she kindly said to me, “Thank you for appearing even though it was also hard on you” which made me very glad. Since my physical condition was also poor back then, she was worried about me. I think I was able to grow precisely because of that time [as Paruru’s under]. --- This year, you served as AKB48’s center for “Tsubasa wa Iranai”, leaped to 13th place during thesousenkyo and entered the senbatsu. What is your next goal? Hmm, well, I’d like to release a photobook during my teens. I have a little over a year left until I turn 20 years old. I’m really not good with the cold, so I’d like to go and shoot it in a warm place like a southern island. --- What do you do these days for comfort whenever you’re busy? I eat. Recently, I no longer have any likes or dislikes. I originally had a very unbalanced diet, there were a lot of things that I couldn’t eat during lunch when I was an elementary school student. I hated cheese and mayonnaise, but now I’ve grown to love both. And understanding the taste of fish has turned me into an adult (lol). I also like to fiddle with my phone while I’m having a bath. I put it in a Ziploc bag and do things like update my SNS (lol).
This made me think of the time Mion tweeted that she was currently watching Seichan's seitansai while taking a bath.
Some pictures from the Tofu Pro Wrestling press conference. The twintails + seifuku makes Mion look like she's about 15 years old again.
This odd fancam from the thanksgiving festival 8/16 at 4:51 Miion and Mogi enjoy the festival if the video does not show watch the video here @sgtbubba wow!!!
there wasn't an extra application round, so Mion's concert has probably sold out~ around 30 tickets are being resold on ticketcamp and only 3 on yahoo auctions

The set list looks really good. I especially want to watch TwI, I'm glad that Mion decided to keep learning how to play the guitar and was finally able to play it for a performance. Apparently Kojiharu announced in the VTR message that she's giving her catchphrase "Saitama ken kara kimashita" to Mion.
